“It seems that the brake of ATR aircraft was not applied on time. This may be the negligence of the technician in the cockpit,” the source added.

The ATR aircraft’s wings and engine’s parts were damaged in the incident. The fuel tank was also damaged due to which fuel drained out on the runway.

The Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) called in fire tenders to handle any untoward incident

This is the second incident within two weeks involving ATR aircraft of the national flag carrier. On Nov 10, an ATR aircraft ran out of runway at Panjgur airport. The aircraft was badly damaged in the incident.
